Brandon Roy's gutsy performance is diminished by the impact of the Refs on this game.

Truly embarrassing.

heartbreaking, that's twice we've lost this season GW's. This was a big game too, we'd have overtaken both Portland and Utah.

very few referees are going to call a foul in such a situation...

Ariza did nothing the last 5 mins of the game.

RA has gotta learn to trust Budinger down the stretch.

Now those missing FT haunt the rockets. Roy just being more clutch and that is the only reason blazers won this.

Ariza played good D on Roy, I just didn't understand why he went for the steal on that last drive.

Out of all the players, Rockets couldnt get in the flow of the game. But Landry played really well. Brandon Roy was the difference in the end. Good scrappy game controlled by the refs.

it's the artest syndrome. it seems players with defensive reputation coming to Houston will catch this disease. only battier has the antibodies.

Ariza's defense is ok but Roy made those tough tough shots. Can't blame Ariza for Roy's last 2 baskets
